Encaustics?

[pbp908]

Does anyone here work with encaustics? My sister gave me a ton of different colors that have never been opened. I don't use them and would love to find someone who could.

It's something I've always wanted to learn. A woman at a craft fair in Melbourne had the most beautiful pieces for sale and I always regretting not buying one.

Has your sister used them before?

[pbp908]

No. She said that my nephew had purchased them and never used them. He didn't send the warmer for the waxes - just the wax. They've sold the house in Ct. and she's living here permanently with my other nephew while Charlie purchased a sailboat and will be living on it. Therefore the big cull of his art supplies. Pat kept the oils and acrylics, which I have in abundance, as well as most of the canvases.

I'm so tempted...
If no one else claims them, send them to me. Maybe I'll actually take a class?

[pbp908]

They're yours if you want them! I'd be more than happy to send them on.

Will look forward to seeing what you do if you try them. I think the art produced is stunning, but took a class myself once and decided it wasn't for me.

Then you can teach us at re(create)!
